This night was so dreamy, Xu Youning also slept very peacefully.
But Musijue stayed up all night.
He looked at Xu Youning in his arms for a moment. When he came to his senses, it was already four o'clock in the morning.
In the past few hours, his mind seemed blank and he seemed to be thinking a lot.
The only thing that is clear is that what awaits him after he returns is the biggest challenge in his life.
From this point of view, he should cherish these three days.
At this time, what Musijue didn't know was that fate was so stingy that it didn't even give him three days.
Mu Sijue didn't know why, he just felt irritable, so he gently let go of Xu Youning, walked outside the tent, and lit a cigarette.
Mina was on duty in the middle of the night and immediately noticed the movement on Mu Sijue's side. She picked up the walkie-talkie and asked, "Brother Seven, what's wrong? Do you need help?"
"It's okay." Musijue lowered his head slightly and bit the cigarette butt, "I'll smoke a cigarette."
"Oh fine."
Mina did not dare to disturb Musijue and said nothing more, and the intercom went silent.
Musijue finished his cigarette and blew in the wind for a while. He waited until the smell was gone before returning to the tent.
Xu Youning still maintained the same posture as before, sleeping soundly.
In fact, Xu Youning is a very vigilant person.
If it had been in the past, when Mu Sijue came in and out like this, she would have noticed and woke up long ago.
But now, in her sleep, she obviously didn't notice it at all.
Mu Sijue only wanted to believe it because Xu Youning could feel at ease after returning to him.
He was unwilling to admit that the condition had more seriously affected Xu Youning's perception and reaction.
"Um……"
Xu Youning suddenly moved in his sleep, groping around with one hand a few times, looking very much like he was looking for Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue was afraid that Xu Youning might wake him up, so he lay down and held her in his arms. Xu Youning did not move at all.
He looked at Xu Youning in his arms, the corners of his lips raised slightly unconsciously, then he closed his eyes, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Two hours later, dawn came quietly.
Perhaps because the environment was too unfamiliar, Xu Youning did not sleep until midnight like he used to, and his consciousness returned to consciousness early.
She heard the crisp chirping of birds and the whistling of the wind, mixed together, it was like music played by nature, and it was extremely beautiful.
Xu Youning opened his eyes hazily, but the surroundings were still dark.
She simply thought it was still dark, so she changed her sleeping position, hugged Musijue gropingly, and closed her eyes to sleep again.
She forgot that the lights in the tent were actually on.
Even if it was still dark and she couldn't see the sun, she should still be able to see the light.
Mu Sijue was prone to waking up easily, but after Xu Youning made a fuss, he also opened his eyes.
The air in the mountains is very good, especially in the early morning.
In the morning, the moist air seems to have been washed by mountain spring water, and every trace of it is refreshing.
Musijue looked at the time and saw that it was getting late and they had to rush to the next place.
Xu Youning had obviously woken up just now, but he lay down again, obviously wanting to stay in bed.
Mu Sijue pinched Xu Youning's face and ordered: "Get up."
"It's not yet dawn." Xu Youning opened Mu Sijue's hand and buried his face in the pillow, "Don't make trouble."
Mu Sijue seemed to have been hit hard, his hand froze in the air, and his whole body was stunned for a moment.
The sky is already bright, and the thin morning light can be vaguely seen on the distant mountains. The world has ushered in a new day.
However, Xu Youning actually said in a daze that it was not yet dawn.
Has her world fallen into darkness?
Musijue felt as if he had been stabbed unexpectedly, his heart was in uncontrollable and severe pain, and even breathing was painful.
He lay down, hugged Xu Youning gently, and said nothing.
If she still wants to sleep, let her sleep.
No matter what Xu Youning's world becomes, no matter what the world becomes, he will always be by Xu Youning's side.
Xu Youning really wanted to sleep. After feeling Mu Sijue lie down, he vaguely noticed something was wrong.
Mu Sijue... was too silent.
Didn't he just order her to get up? Why is she silent now?
Xu Youning sat up and opened his eyes. The surroundings were still dark.
He asked Sijue Mus in confusion: "Why is it so dark? What time is it now? Should we turn on a light?"
"No need." Mu Sijue sat up, faced Xu Youning, and said, "This is good."
"But it's too..."
Xu Youning wanted to say, but this is too dark, right?!
However, she was only halfway through her words when she suddenly realized that something was not right.
It's not like she hasn't experienced the dark night before.
The darkness in front of her eyes was too dark and too complete, the kind that truly made her unable to see her fingers, as if the world had become purgatory and there would never be a trace of light again.
On a normal night, no matter how dark it is, you can always see something clearly.
But now, she can't see anything.
Xu Youning had a vague premonition.
Moreover, this premonition may have become a reality.
For a moment, Xu Youning felt as if she had been thrown into an extremely cold place, and a chill spread from the soles of her feet to the palms of her hands.
It's not dark.
Instead, her world has plunged into darkness forever.
She finally couldn't see anything...
Mu Sijue looked at Xu Youning's dim eyes, and it was not difficult to guess that Xu Youning knew that he had lost his eyesight.
Song Jiqing and Ye Luo just told him that it would be soon.
He just didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Mu Sijue hugged Xu Youning into his arms and gently stroked the back of her head: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Xu Youning tried hard to adjust his emotions, trying to squeeze out a smile to reassure Mu Sijue, but in the end he couldn't control himself and squeezed out tears.
She clenched her hands into fists and cried quietly.
"Don't cry. Youning, don't cry." Mu Sijue hugged Xu Youning harder, as if to give her a harbor to rely on, "You still have me, I'm by your side."
"Mu Sijue..." Xu Youning choked and asked, "What should I do if I can't see you anymore?"
"No, definitely not." Musijue promised confidently, "On the day your child is born, Henry and Ji Qing will perform surgery on you. You will get better and your eyesight will recover. Don't think about it.
After a while, you will definitely be able to see again."
Xu Youning nodded and tried to push back the tears.
In fact, even if Mu Sijue was by her side, even if Mu Sijue said he would accompany her, she was still at a loss.
Although her body has become increasingly frail in the past period of time, she still has the basic ability to take care of herself.
But now that she is blind, she is equivalent to being disabled.
If she wants to live without any accidents, she needs someone to take care of her.
She needs to change her lifestyle and habits for more than 20 years and get used to a lifestyle without color or brightness.
Maybe she was too cowardly, she felt...this was really a terrible thing.
The only good thing is that she doesn't have to hide her fear in front of Musijue.
Xu Youning hugged Mu Sijue, his voice trembling slightly: "Mu Sijue, I'm very scared..."
When she learned about her illness, she was afraid that it would not be cured and that she would not be able to save her child. Therefore, she was more afraid of the future.
But now, there is a deep anxiety and uneasiness, like a person suddenly lost his way in the forest.
This feeling is no better than fear.
"Don't be afraid." Mu Sijue stroked Xu Youning's back and tried his best to give her the greatest comfort. "No matter what happens, I will be with you and we will face it together."
"..." Xu Youning nodded sluggishly, his emotions finally recovered, and he asked, "What time is it now?"
"It's just dawn." Musijue looked at his watch, "It's half past six."
"Really?" Xu Youning felt a little regretful, "I didn't expect that I couldn't even see the sunrise today."
"Don't think blindly." Musijue said, "After you recover, you can watch the sunrise for the rest of your life."
Xu Youning tried his best to smile and said, "Mu Sijue, let's go back. I want to go home."
According to Musijue's original itinerary, they had one more place to go.
Xu Youning also quietly thought about whether that place would be a bigger surprise than a meteor shower.
However, now that things have become like this, she doesn't want to go anywhere, she just wants to return to the safest place.
Mu Sijue understood Xu Youning's mood, and of course he would not refuse her request at this time.
He let go of Xu Youning, stroked her face, held her hand, and said, "Okay, let's go home."
It is undeniable that Xu Youning feels a lot more at ease because of Mu Sijue's attention to every detail.
Xu Youning's mood was no longer so bad. He tried hard to adjust his emotions so as not to worry Mu Sijue, and responded briskly: "Okay!"
After saying that, he jumped up energetically.
She forgot that this was a tent and its height was not as high as hers.
When Mu Sijue wanted to stop him, it was too late. He could only watch Xu Youning hit the tent support with a "bang" without hesitation. The whole process was extremely joyful.
"ah!"
Xu Youning screamed, but later he realized what a stupid thing he had done and was embarrassed to say anything again.
Unexpectedly, Musijue remained silent.
Xu Youning thought for a while, reacted quickly, and kicked Mu Sijue accurately: "Don't think that because I can't see you, I don't know you are laughing!"
The corners of Mu Sijue's lips raised slightly, and he said frankly: "I am indeed smiling."
"Why didn't you remind me?" Xu Youning rubbed his head, annoyed, "You know I can't see you!"
"You are too fast, I can't make it in time." Mu Sijue's tone was full of helplessness, and he directly picked up Xu Youning and said, "Let's go back."
After leaving the tent, Xu Youning smelled the morning air in the mountains.
Clean, refreshing, mixed with the faint fragrance of wild plants.
When she came here yesterday, she obviously couldn't smell anything.
Perhaps, as others have said, invisible people can hear more clearly and have a more sensitive sense of smell.
Xu Youning put his face against Mu Sijue's chest: "Looking at it this way, it's not a particularly bad thing that I can't see..."
